Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) is an important agent of hospital-acquired infection. VanA phenotype is characterized by resistance to high levels of vancomycin and teicoplanin and is encoded by the vanA gene, whereas VanD phenotype is characterized by resistance to vancomycin and susceptibility or intermediate resistance to teicoplanin; however, some isolates carry a VanD phenotype...
